        "description": "The e3 Project has been established to secure a strategic partner (SP) who will deliver modern and innovative IT services to Libraries NI. The project is focussed on delivering a strong working relationship between Libraries NI and the SP who can develop services that meet the needs of specific business areas and can integrate them into an overall corporate solution. Initially the requirement is to manage the legacy services for a period of time whilst planning and implementing new systems and services. It is envisaged this will entail a combined transition and transformation phase and it is essential that continuity of day to day library services is maintained throughout. The Contract will replace the current e2 contract and exit and transfer plans are in place to facilitate a smooth transition. There will be a technology refresh required at various points in the Contract and the SP will be asked to assist by providing expert input and evaluation of emerging technologies that could benefit the delivery of library services. Key to the objectives of e3 are: a) Public computer access b) Corporate desktop build, including peripherals c) Library Management System d) Cash Management System e) Self service functions including library management services and printing f) Virtual library service, including library management services g) Corporate services h) Effective management information and business intelligence systems to inform decision making These systems are deemed essential in conducting the business of LNI. In delivering its current scope of corporate and operational service requirements, Libraries NI utilises a range of IS/IT systems. Advances in technology continue to be a key factor in the drive to improve services, reduce costs and match levels of provision to the needs of customers. ICT is an essential and integral element of every aspect of the work of Libraries NI and is critical to ensuring that it can deliver its statutory duty 'to provide a comprehensive and efficient public library service for persons living, working or studying in Northern Ireland'. Specifically ICT: * supports the purchase, management and lending of books and other resources across the Libraries NI network of 98 static libraries, as well as mobile libraries; * provides customers with access to high speed network provision, coupled with free Wi-Fi and access to computers in every static library which enables customers to access information and promotes learning; * delivers virtual library services, which can be accessed from home; * delivers corporate services; * supports internal and external communication; and * provides data which is essential to governance. e3 is the proposed mission critical programme to ensure Libraries NI has the necessary ICT infrastructure and services to support the delivery of library services beyond the end of the current service provision contract (e2). Further information on the contract requirements and the procurement process are available in the Project Description and Requirements and the Information Memorandum.",
